1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a pipe heater encircled conduit device in which the heat energy can be transferred through a space between a hollow inner quartz tube and a hollow outer quartz tube by both actions of heat conduction and radiation.
2. Brief Description of the Prior Art
As shown in FIG. 10, conventional pipe heater (3) generally has a hollow metal pipe (31) in which a heating element (32) is provided, and electrode pins (33) for connection with outside power source are connected to both ends of the heating element (32). Kaolinite (34) for insulation purpose is filled within the hollow metal pipe (31). Then, the hollow metal pipe (31) is rolled so as to make the filled kaolinite become more compact. Both ends of the hollow metal pipe (31) are sealed by the resin glue (35) so that the interior of the hollow metal pipe (31) is in sealed state. However, the pipe heater (3) is placed within the barrel having heat insulation that is used to hold water. The hollow metal pipe (31) in long term contact with water causes oxidization easily which results in gradual corrosion. Serious corrosion often leads to the rupture of the hollow metal pipe (31), in turn gives rise to current leakage problem. Furthermore, large amount of mineral materials contained in the water also cause impurities or scale formation on the pipe. The scale formation on the pipe will bring about resistance to the transfer of the heat generated from the pipe heater (3), i.e, deterioration of heat transfer efficiency.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a pipe heater encircled conduit device, in which a heating element wrapped with a filament having high resistance is provided and a hollow quartz inner tube is inserted at the outside of said heating element to form a pipe heater, both ends of the heating element being connected with an electrode pin respectively. A hollow quartz outer tube is inserted at the outside of the pipe heater, which has an inlet and an outlet on the tube wall. A heat transfer space is thus formed between the inner quartz tube and the outer quartz tube, and insulation members are combined with the respective opening end of both tubes. By the arrangement, the heat energy generated by the pipe heater formed by the heating element within the hollow inner quartz tube can be transferred to the medium which is introduced from the inlet and exhausted from the outlet. Thus, the medium can be heated by the heat energy generated by the heating element itself by both actions of heat conduction and radiation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The technical contents of the present invention will become more apparent from the detailed description of the preferred embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Firstly referring to FIG. 1, the conduit device (1) of the present invention comprises:
a pipe heater (11) formed by a heating element (111) wrapped with a filament (112) having high resistance and a hollow quartz inner tube (113) inserted at the outside of the heating element (111), both ends of the heating element (111) being connected with a electrode pin (114) respectively;
An outer tube unit (12) having a hollow quartz outer tube (123) inserted at the outside of the pipe heater (11), the quartz outer tube (123) having an inlet (121) and an outlet (122) on the tube wall, a heat transfer space (A) being formed between said inner quartz tube (113) and said outer quartz tube (123), and insulation members (124) being combined with the respective opening end of both tubes, the end of each electrode pin (114) of the pipe heater (11) extending to the outside of said insulation member (124) for the connection with power source.
As shown in FIG. 2, the exterior of the heating element (111) in the pipe heater (11) is wrapped with a filament (112) having high resistances, and both ends of the heating element (111) are connected with electrode pins (114). The number of the heating element (111), wrapped with a filament (112) having high resistance and connecting at both ends with electrode pins (114), can be determined according to the requirement of heat energy generated, for example, the number can be one or more than one. Then, a hollow inner quartz tube (113) is inserted on the outside of the heating element (111) so as to form a pipe heater (11). In turn, the pipe heater (11) is inserted into a hollow outer quartz tube (123) such that the electrode pins (114) extend to the outside from both ends of the hollow outer quartz tube (123). Both ends of the hollow outer quartz tube (123) are combined with the insulation member (124) which for example is made of ceramic material, and both electrode pins (114) are connected with outside power source to become turned-on. In this way, a heat transfer space (A) is thus formed between the hollow outer quartz tube (123) and the hollow inner quartz tube (113) of the pipe heater (11).
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, when in use, the electrodes pins (114) of the heating element (111) are supplied with power so that the pipe heater (11) begins to generate heat for heating. The heat energy and the light generated from the heat element (111) is transferred out through the wall of the hollow inner quartz tube (113). At this time, a suitable fluid medium is introduced from the inlet (121) of the hollow outer quartz tube (123) into the heat transfer space (A) between the hollow outer quartz tube (123) and the hollow inner quartz tube (113) of the pipe heater (11). The medium within the heat transfer space (A) is heated by the action of radiation and conduction of the heat generated from the heating element (111) such that the medium reaches high temperature rapidly or even evaporates into vapor state. The vapor thus produced is delivered out from the outlet (122) of the hollow outer quartz tube (123) to the place where the heat energy is required. The medium (fluid) can be introduced at a slow pace into the heat transfer space (A) from the inlet (121) of the hollow outer quartz tube (123).
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the number of the inlet (121) and the outlet (122) arranged on the hollow outer quartz tube (123) of the conduit device (1) can be provided more than one set respectively according to the heat energy needed by user. The heat energy and light can be effectively transferred to the heat transfer space (A) between the hollow outer quartz tube (123) and the hollow inner quartz tube (113) by both actions of radiation and conduction of the heat generated from the heating element (111) of the pipe heater (11), so that the medium reaches to a high temperature or evaporates to vapor state. Thus, the heat energy generated by the pipe heater (11) formed by the hollow inner quartz tube (113) can be transferred and conducted through the inlet (121) and the outlet (122) of the hollow outer quartz tube (123).
As shown in FIGS. 6 to 9, the conduit device (1) of a further embodiment of the present invention comprises:
a pipe heater (11) formed by a heating element (111) wrapped with filament (112) having high resistance, and a hollow quartz inner tube (113) is inserted at the outside of the heating element (113), the heating element (111) being connected with the respective electrode pin (114);
An outer tube unit (12) has a hollow quartz outer tube (123) inserted at the outside of the pipe heater (11), and the hollow quartz outer tube (123) has an inlet (121) and an outlet (122) on the tube wall. A heat transfer space (A) is thus formed between the inner quartz tube (113) and the outer quartz tube (123), and insulation members (124) are combined with the respective opening end of both tubes. The end of each electrode pin (114) of the pipe heater (11) extends to the outside of the insulation member (124) for the connection with power source;

When in use, the electrodes (114) of the heating element (111) are supplied with power so that the pipe heater (11) begins to generate heat for heating. The heat generated from the heat element (111) is transferred out through the wall of the hollow inner quartz tube (113). The medium within the heat transfer space (A) is heated by both actions of radiation and conduction of the heat generated from the heating element (111) such that the medium reaches high temperature rapidly or evaporates into vapor state. When a suitable fluid medium is introduced from the inlet (131) of the outer shield (13) into the heat convection space (B) and the heat transfer space (A) among the hollow inner quartz tube (113), the hollow outer quartz tube (123) and the outer shield (13), the medium introduced from the outer shield (13) will form vortex circulated heat transfer at a plurality of inlet (121) and a plurality of outlet (122) of the hollow outer quartz tube (123) such that the medium introduced will be fused with the existed medium having heat energy. The heat energy can be effectively transferred to the heat transfer space (A) between the hollow outer quartz tube (123) and the hollow inner quartz tube (113) by both action of radiation and conduction of heat generated from the heating element (111) of the pipe heater (11), so that the medium reaches to a high temperature or boils to vapor state. In turn, vortex circulated heat transfer of the entry fluid and the exit fluid respectively formed at a plurality of inlet (121) and a plurality of outlet (122) of the hollow outer quartz tube (123) will be continuously induced by the cooperation of the continuous heating of the heating element (111) and the continuous introduction of medium from the outer shield (13), such that the medium introduced from the outer shield (13) will be fused and connected with the existed medium at high temperature or in vapor state. Eventually, a mixed medium having high temperature is obtained.
